AP-5131 Introduction 1-17
For detailed information on available AP-5131 statistical displays and the values they represent, see 
Monitoring Statistics on page 7-1.
1.2.18 Transmit Power ControlThe AP-5131 has a configurable power level for each radio. This enables the network administrator 
to define the antenna’s transmission power level in respect to the AP-5131’s placement or network 
requirements as defined in the AP-5131 site survey. 
For detailed information on setting the radio transmit power level, see Configuring the 802.11a or 
802.11b/g Radio on page 5-48.
1.2.19 Advanced Event Logging CapabilityThe AP-5131 provides the capability for periodically logging system events. Logging events is useful 
in assessing the throughput and performance of the AP-5131 or troubleshooting problems on the 
AP-5131 managed Local Area Network (LAN). 
For detailed information on AP-5131 events, see Logging Configuration on page 4-35.
1.2.20 Configuration File Import/Export FunctionalityConfiguration settings for an AP-5131 can be downloaded from the current configuration of another 
AP-5131. This affords the administrator the opportunity to save the current configuration before 
making significant changes or restoring the default configuration. 
For detailed information on importing or exporting configuration files, see Importing/Exporting 
Configurations on page 4-37.
1.2.21 Default Configuration RestorationThe AP-5131 has the ability to restore its default configuration or a partial default configuration with 
the exception of current WAN and SNMP settings. Restoring the default configuration is a good way 
to create new WLANs if the MUs the AP-5131 supports have been moved to different radio coverage 
areas. 
For detailed information on restoring a default or partial default configuration, see Configuring 
System Settings on page 4-2.
